I would recommend for anyone dealing with a tragic, sudden loss. It has helped me tremendously in trying to understand other family members and their trauma as well as my own.

One of many must haves. I was given this book when my brother died and have bought many copies over the years for others. A true gem.

This book has a lot of information for anyone who has lost someone in a tragic death. Very informative.

I thought the book was better than the people who gave us "two weeks to grieve" the loss of my daughter's dad.
He was killed in a terrorist attack-"It wasn't a murder," the agent told us, "it was a terrorist attack"-in Tower 1 of the World Trade Center.
Based on what people were saying, I thought there was no WAY a book could steer me into any odder territories, so I picked it up.

Written in a very matter of fact tone with good suggestions.

[Phil · Rating 2 out of 5]

Good ideas and well developed story with a very silly ending. Would be better titled "had no time to be bothered with the ending".
